Herein lies the problem of the Yorubas. The Yoruba nation  should welcome the inluence of other cultures. If it refuses to evolve and continues to revolve it would be left behind and may even make itself extinct.
makes no sense.

ACM10:
Nobody knows and keeps history in Nigeria more than Edos. They are in complete grasp of their history. It's the yorubas that are trying to muddle things up by their sheer domination of information media.

Can you point to those major historical and cultural ties between Edos and Yorubas?
I dont know what you mean. It was the edos that said yorubas descended from them and the yorubas who said the edos descended from them.

Was is not the edos that claimed Oba of Lagos is bini origin. so how is that yoruba dominance.

and dont know if you can read or not but there is no culture in Nigeria surrounding the SW that has had Strong cultuural influence on yoruba. even if half the yorubas today are not yoruba in origin. who will tell them otherwise.

Igbomina werent yoruba before but they are now. an Oyo person cannot understand igbomina or Ijebu.

Poster makes no sense.

1) theres like 5-6 tribes in Edo Alone.
2)there is not a culture in Nigeria that is as Homogeneous as yoruba, just the way it is,

Through out history Yorubas have had some relations with Ijaw,Bini,Igala/Igarra,Nupe,Hausa,Urhobo,Fulani,Egun,Ewe,Bariba,Kanuri,Fon
but still have a strong cultural identity.

Yoruba culture has more substance than igbo, fact is igbo have been influenced by almost all the tribes that surround them, unlike the yoruba who have mixed, occasionally conquered, been conquered and intermarried but still haven't been heavily influenced by non yoruba groups Truth#.

thats common knowledge. Even look at Igbos today, there isnt a really a cultural dress, some dress like Ijaw, Some like efik, Some like Bini, Some lIke yorubas, Some even like Hausa way of dressing. down to the red hat, its origin is muslim.
Igbo are more likely to copying something anything from other tribes.

After killing and sacking Fulanis in Gushegu in the Northern Region, some Kokombas have turned the anger on each other fighting for the property left behind the fulanis.

Two communities- Jujong One and Jujong Two communities are fighting among each other and hastily amassing the wealth of the fulanis, Joy News' Tamale Correspondent Mahama Shaibu reported.

Last two weeks 13 Fulani herdsmen were killed and several others injured in a dawn attack in Gushegu which forced many of them to seek shelter and refuge at the Disabled Resource Centre, leaving their cattle and food stuff behind.

@pechhamboi

They are not actually very aggressive nor domineering in other places in West Africa as they are in Northern Nigeria. I think that the overall peaceful nature of other Nigerians have been construed as laziness or cowardice by the Fula and it raises the mystic of the so called brave fulani in the Nigerian sphere quite unlike other places where they are looked down on or even discriminated against.
I agree - Among other Islamic tribes/countries - (Wolof, Mandinka, Bariba, MandeTaureg etc in MaliSenegal Benin and even Niger etc)
Fulani are not aggressive because those tribes are Larger, More Aggressive and are muslim. So there is no banding under ISLAM against Christians or what ever like they do in Nigeria.

I also attribute it to education and development of Not only to middle belt and southern Nigerians but also Ghanaians.

When one examines clashes in Nigeria- southern/middlebelt Nigerians and ghanaians are about their business in terms of daily life, business, schools, hospitals. We dont have TIME to go back and for with fulani- If southerners/middle belter set aside their lives business and schools and went back to our barbaric way of living fulani will hate themselves!

But poorer islamic tribes in west africa DO and WILL which is why fulani dont go around fuckin with them.

Believe me, the only group that is really disliked in the south are Yoruba. I know that Edo may not join Biafra, but I know for sure that they would NEVER join Odua. FACT.

I've said it here before, the way things would turn out when everybody is faced with hard core facts, would shock a lot of people.
I'm only angry that people are cutting up Eastern Nigeria to suit their twisted agendas.
If yorubas are the most Hated in the South what does that concern you if youre a biafran? Like no really is it your business? The Name Odua its self is a projection of who they want in their country "yoruba speakers".

Yorubas and their related groups are in Benin Togo and Nigeria Mainly and still have no problem moving intermarrying like they're no barriers, so what would make you think there would be a problem if Yoruba related groups in the Niger delta decide to have a ND republic?

[size=14pt]and why are sooo BENT ON having edos urhobos ijaws etc join Biafra? Cant they have a Niger delta republic ? You sound SOOO DESPERATE.

They are from Akoko, many have yoruba names sometimes both first and last, but still remain Igarra,So why would there be any hate?

you sound ridiculous. Nigeria can break tomorrow- there will still be Yorubas living in Warri, Benin city married to locals In the "New Niger Delta Republic",and there will still be Urhobos,binis,igarra in Lagos, Akure and Ibadan in the new "Oduduwa republic". You think people who marry from SW and Edo Delta state will suddenly divorce and move to different countries? LOL

original poster makes no sense.

No one will gain or lose anything Besides gaining their own region independently.

What business do igbos do in Lagos that a yoruba cannot? no really seriously. Lagos isnt the SW and even Minus Lagos SW still has the largest non oil GDP . lets be realsitic.

In the Niger delta their are non deltan Oil workers, but it wouldnt make sense for anyone to think that a deltan isnt capable of pumpin their own Oil, like wise business in the SW and North.

be realistic. I dont give a fuk who's losing what. at the end of the Day everyone is capable of building their own region. even Hausa if they wanted to, there's nothing stopping anyone.

You are on the path without doubt to peace and glory!!! The simple problem with the Igbo maybe that they want reliable allies via religion because its the only thing that can associate them with others.That apart they are ethnocentric.They know it!
I think alot of them are trying to create religious morons for them to ride on the divide. so that when they eventually decide to revenge the biafran and so many other loses they can do it with ease on there bitter rivals (Aka the north).I don't think they like the other tribes as much.They are just playing the religious card simple.Going by the fact they didn't see anything to rejoice over when there neighbor is peaceful and welcoming.Also they don't see the fact that in SW leadership they speak Yoruba and not Muslims vs christian grammar eg in the North and SE especially.We are a typical example in the North.That religious divide today has brought us to destruction!Don't take that path.Just ignore this bunch of moronic agitators.

cool is there a problem with people assimilating into being yoruba? Yoruba tribe is big and very influential, just as the Songhai, Hausas,Berbers

why is it hard to understand that yoruba more than a lot of other tribes had/has non yorubas becoming yorubanized often through  slave trade,marriage, culture, migration?

Alot of Afro Arabs- have non arab ancestry but are still arab- why should some yorubas be any different?
I'm a yoruba like everyone in my family but our ancestors were not even Nigerian but from different countries- We dont know anything other than yoruba. . . .  lol is it my fault that my ancestors loved yoruba language/culture/way of living so much they decided to become yorubanized and marry with indigenous yorubas of Nigeria?

More Stories on This Section
Barely 48 hours after the nationwide anti-subsidy removal protest ended, President Goodluck Jonathan may need an urgent and concrete action to douse the tension brewing in the South East geo-political zone.
The people in the area have resolved to give back fire for fire in the event of any further killing of their kinsmen in the North.

Yesterday, an umbrella of the youth organizations in the zone, Alliance of Igbo Youths (AIY) rose from its general assembly in Awka with a decision to take the destinies of Ndigbo in their hands, warning that the zone would not tolerate any further killing of any Igboman or woman by the Boko Haram or any group in Nigeria.

AIY stand coincided with the stand of the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law (Intersociety) which in a letter to President Goodluck Jonathan, copy of which was made available to Daily Sun yesterday, noted that 510 Igbo Christians had been killed by Boko Haram in the last 12 months, describing it as, “a systematic ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity.”

Briefing newsmen after their general assembly, Mr. Emeka Moneme and Johnbosco Muozoba, secretary general and president respectively of AIY, said President Jonathan’s government was toying with the lives of Ndigbo as it had shown insincerity in its dealings with the people of the South-east.

They said: “You are aware of our meeting last Thursday in Abuja with the Minister of Defence and subsequently with the National Security Committee at the NSA’s office, over the brutal killing of Ndigbo in northern Nigeria.
“Today we have briefed the general assembly of the Alliance of Igbo Youths on the outcome of that visit and the general consensus is that this government is toying with the lives of Ndigbo. It has not shown sincerity in dealing with the Igbo question.”

Meanwhile, in the letter of Intersociety to the president signed by its chairman, Board of Trustees, Emeka Umeagbalasi, the body chronicled the killings of Ndigbo in the North from January to December 2011 and demanded that the president takes a concrete step to end further killings of Igbo Christians anywhere in Nigeria.

exotik:
i never said the fulanis introduced islam to the yorubas. i only answered the question why hausa-fulani muslims do not respect yoruba muslims. and it is quite simple, because a yoruba group whether they were muslims, xtians, or shango worshippers were conquered by the hausa-fulani group unless u want to say ilorin is not a yorubaland. and whether u agree with it or not, the fall of old oyo to the hausa-fulani, did help spread islam amongst yoruba groups. kinda like how the british didnt introduce christianity to the edos, but the fall of of benin to the british did help spread christianity amongst edo groups.

i actually dont care how it was conquered. the bottomline is, it was conquered. and that was how ilorin became one of the bastard seven. and because the people in ilorin were a yoruba-group, the disrespect from the hausa-fulani group, rubbed off other yoruba groups who didnt come under the control of the hausa-fulani.
urhhhhh
Majority of People in Ilorin were not a yoruba group and never were. they were actually Bariba and Nupe muslim prior to Yorubas reaching Ilorin and then Fulanis. so Ilorin being Muslim because of "conquest" makes no sense, Igbomina aswell, Majority back then were NOT yoruba- but today they have assimilated into being yoruba with Language/culture Mainly Language.

Some Kwara people will tell you they are not yoruba- cause they technically aren't - Thats like calling Eguns in Lagos, yoruba- cause many dont speak Egun but only yoruba- they still arent yoruba.
I have Ilorin family that are NOT yoruba but technically Nupe/Bariba and call themselves yoruba because of assimilating.

Whether ilorin is Yorubaland or not varies from opinion to opinion.

Igbos don't hate Yorubas, but Yorubas hate/resent/dislike/loath Igbos. And they have shown it in so many ways

Please get for me one single comment made in real life from a notable Igbo about the Yoruba

Here I will give you examples of comments made by notable Yorubas about the Igbo.

Then you decide who hates who

1. ''Igbos should leave politics and face trading, what they know how best to do''----------  Adesanya's daughter when she was a minister
2. ''Igbos will be wiped out''----------  A notable Yoruba lawyer working for ACN recently made this comment. He has apologized however. This was here on nairaland. Can anyone remember?
3. ''I dealt with your ragtag Biafra army, I will deal wit you again''---------Oluwole Rotimi former ambassador to US to Ojo Maduekwe, then minister of foreign affairs.
4. ''I will kill anything walking in Igbo land''-------------Adekunle during the Biafra war
5. ''Starvation is a weapon of war and we used it on the Igbos''-------------Awolowo
6. ''The Igbos wanted your oil''--------- Obasanjo  a few years back in Bayelsa when he went to either campaign or as a sitting president. Now we know how many Igbos licking the oil, compared to hausa and Yoruba.
that still has to do with Civil war. and that isnt resenting more like his opinion like I said Majority of Yoruba people under 50 have no clue what biafra was, is and their parents didnt care to tell them.
